Wizkid Opens Up: Life, Love, and the Story Behind His Tottenham Stadium Show

Two days ago, Wizkid made a post on Instagram that caught everyone’s attention.

In his words:

“We made this documentary when life got crazy for me. Playing Tottenham Hotspur Stadium while dealing with life! Glad I get to have my amazing fans and family on this journey with me.

This is love! From a real place.”

It wasn’t just another post. It was real. Honest. You could feel the weight behind it.

A Night the World Won’t Forget

In July 2023, Wizkid became the first African artist to headline the massive Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.

That night wasn’t just about the music. It was history in the making.

Over 60,000 people came out. The energy was unreal.

He performed some of his biggest hits Ojuelegba, Essence, Mood and the crowd sang every word like it was their own story.

Big names showed up to stars like Bukayo Saka and Alex Iwobi were spotted vibing in the crowd.

But behind all the lights, the cheering, and the celebrations, Wizkid was carrying something heavier. Something personal.

Behind the Scenes

From his post, it’s clear: while the world was watching a superstar, Wizkid was going through real life battles in the background.

We don’t know all the details yet, but what he shared tells us something important even the people who look like they have it all together are fighting their own battles.

And still, he showed up. Still, he gave his all. That’s strength.

The Documentary

Wizkid says they made a documentary during that time.

Not just to show the concert, but to show the real story, the wins, the struggles, the emotions.

Not just “big stages and flashy moments,” but the heart behind it all.

And honestly? That’s something the world needs to see. Not just the music legend. But the man. The human being.

Why This Matters

In a world where everyone tries to hide their struggles and only show their highlight reel, Wizkid’s honesty is refreshing.

It reminds us:

It’s okay to go through tough seasons.

It’s okay to not be “perfect.”

And it’s beautiful to keep showing up with love, even when life gets hard.

Conclusion

Wizkid’s journey is bigger than music. It’s about resilience. It’s about heart.

And most of all, it’s about staying true to yourself and to the people who love you.

We can’t wait to see the full documentary.

And when it drops, it won’t just be another story about success.

It’ll be a story about real life, real love, and real strength.

This is love. From a real place.

The caption was brief, heartfelt, sincere, and filled with gratitude.

Her husband, Olumide Aderinokun, also shared the good news, describing their new daughter as a blessing that came at the perfect time. The couple, who married in 2016, welcomed their first child, Ariella, in 2019.

Hilda’s Record-Breaking Jollof Festival

Published

on

Chef Hilda Baci turned Lagos into a giant kitchen on Friday when the World Jollof Festival lit up the Eko Hotel Car Park B. Part record attempt, part cultural celebration, the event drew thousands who came to witness one of the most ambitious cooking feats ever attempted in Nigeria.

Her goal was audacious: to cook the largest pot of Nigerian jollof rice ever made. A custom-built pot, six metres wide and six metres tall, was rolled in for the challenge. It was originally designed to hold 250 bags of rice. With smoke rising and the massive cauldron heating up, the crowd pressed forward, eager to see whether she could pull it off.

Among those who came to cheer her on were some of Nigeria’s familiar faces. Actress Funke Akindele and Jemima Osunde were spotted around the giant pot, offering encouragement. Dancer Kaffy joined in the excitement, while DJ Peller added to the festival’s energy. Influencers including Enioluwa Adeoluwa, Tomike Adeoye, Folagade Banks and Vicky James shared live updates from the ground, ensuring the spectacle reached far beyond Lagos.

After nine hours of steady cooking, Baci completed the challenge. Instead of the planned 250 bags, she managed 200. The effort produced more than 14,000 kilograms of jollof rice. Volunteers worked quickly once the food was ready, handing out over 30,000 takeaway packs to a delighted audience at no cost.

The day, however, was not without setbacks. During the weighing process, the giant pot gave way while being lifted by a crane. It collapsed under its own weight. The accident forced organisers to scale back the rice used, but Baci and her team pressed on, determined to finish. The determination drew loud cheers from the crowd, who applauded her resilience as much as her cooking.

What remains uncertain is how Guinness World Records will judge the attempt. The collapse of the pot raises questions about whether the technical requirements were fully met, and official verification is still pending.

Still, the festival itself was a triumph. Beyond the numbers and the chase for a world record, the gathering reminded everyone why jollof rice holds such a special place in Nigerian culture. It brought together thousands of people from different walks of life, from celebrities to everyday Lagosians, to share in food, music and pride.

Whether or not Guinness gives its stamp of approval, Hilda Baci has already shown that Nigerian cuisine can command a global spotlight. A pot of jollof rice, no matter how massive, can still bring people together.

Tyla Makes VMA History in Vintage Chanel and Pandora Jewels

Published

on

The 2025 MTV Video Music Awards belonged to Tyla. With “Push 2 Start,” she became the first artist to win Best Afrobeats two years in a row, a moment that showed her rise from breakout star to one of Afrobeats’ leading names worldwide. Her win placed Afrobeats firmly on the global stage, with African stars now shaping the direction of pop culture.

Tyla’s win carried the pride of the continent, but her presence on the red carpet made just as much noise. Styled by Ron Hartleben, she arrived in a 1993 vintage Chanel corset top, worn as a cream-and-black micro-mini dress. The look was balanced with fitted black shorts, a modern twist that allowed the outfit to move between daring and clean. Around her waist, gold chain echoing the layered necklaces and heavy medallions at her neckline.

Her partnership with Pandora was on full display as she stacked bracelets, rings, and anklets, turning jewelry into a language of detail and weight. On her feet, she chose black Louboutin pumps, a classic contrast to the rest of the look.

The beauty direction was just as deliberate: a side-parted bob, natural-toned glam and a bold green manicure  gave the look a sharp twist, showing that Tyla knows how to finish off her fashion moments.

It was a red-carpet appearance that felt from the past yet modern, drawing from fashion history while signaling the assurance of an artist who knows she’s making history herself. The award was one part of the night. The other was seeing Tyla step onto the carpet and stage with the same assurance— an artist shaping Afrobeats.
